1.)The first song is the overall theme song for the apocalypse.
Faith no More - Edge of the World
(obviously, my apocalypse is going to have a more lounge/jazz fusion feel. This song makes it sound like I want to make love to all the zombies)
2.)The second song is the one that plays during your first zombie kill.
Omar Rodriguez-Lopez - The Power of Myth
(probably a better "on the run" song, but it's not bad)
3.)The third song is the song that plays while you're getting chased by the horde.
Black Mountain - Wucan
(yep, this song is terrible for all apocalypse situations. Damn indie rock)
4.)The fourth song plays when you're forced to kill your loved one.
The Tragically Hip - Looking for a Place to Happen
(Ehhhh, this just seems grossly inappropriate for this situaiton...)
5.)The fifth song plays when you find your new love interest.
Cheech and Chong - Low Rider
(clearly, the plan is to get stoned here or something)
6.)The sixth song plays when you make your final stand.
The Offspring - Want You Bad
(ahahaha, this soundtrack sucks xD)
7.)The seventh song plays when you think you've survived the final stand.
Witch - Disappear
(hmm, this one actually isn't bad. Could be better, could be worse)
8.)The eighth song plays when you discover a bite mark on your arm...
Kylesa - Insomnia for Months
(Not really in the mood of the soul-crushing defeat of a death sentence, but at least the title could be interpreted as foreshadowing...?)
EDIT: Last round was terrible, so let's have another go, shall we?
1) Isis - Ghost Key
2) Melvins - You've Never Been Right
3) Killing Joke - Pleasures of the Flesh
4) High on Fire - Holy Flames of the Fire Spitter
5) The Holy Mountain - Remains
6) Mastodon - Crack the Skye
7) Tool - Third Eye
8) The Mars Volta - Memories
Much better this time. I just wish that "Remains" could have been my final stand song.

How can you listen to songs that many times and not get sick of them?
Because when I like music, I really like music. I've probably listened to the Mars Volta's De-Loused in the Comatorium 250+ times in its entirety, but it's still one of my favourite albums. I just don't really get sick of music that I like. They're just bad on so many levels; their music is unoriginal and Heafy can't do any of his vocal styles effectively, and the semi emo-metalcore approach they do comes off as immature. Instrumentally they are entirely competent, but otherwise they're just some chorus-based metalcore band that got too much promotion. I've even seen them live opening for Iron Maiden and they suck there too.
I agree somewhat with your sentiment, but obviously not to the extent that you do. Shogun was a good album, but I find all of their other stuff more or less intolerable.

Yeah, I'm really not too psyched about what 343 is doing to the Halo franchise.
Btw, is your gamertag Plazmic Inferno as well?

Title Update. And Bungie had nothing to do with the TU - that was all 343 Studios trying to "re-capture Halo 2 and 3's combat." Which they didn't. Basically the DMR is a power weapon now. That's why me and my friends only ever play games with teams of 4 so we always have a team of people we know can beat inheritors if it ever gets to that situation
It's not the beating the Inheritors part that I have trouble with - any half decent but well coordinated team can do that - it's when random teammates quit. All of a sudden, numbers advantage. Which means they're faster to the power weapons and Banshees and stuff. Of course, once that happens they'll always try to farm kills. I don't remember the last time when I played Invasion on Spire without it ending in me being spawn camped with a Banshee.

That wasn't supposed to be a shot at Gojira. Was just pointing out that Queen and Gojira are a bit of an... odd combination xD

Queen + Lambert on the same stage with Gojira? Wtf?

Originality means EVERYTHING.
Nonsense. Let's take the ultimate example of an original bot, a bot built entirely randomly. There's a very good chance it looks like a garbled mess of components, can't drive at all, is ugly and generally useless. In both IRL and DSL. And you say originality means everything ?
Also, you want to build entirely original ? Go and check all bot pictures that have ever existed then, and do not take advice at all.
This is the straw-iest straw man I've seen in a long, long time. Randomness is not originality. Not even close. If this isn't just your hubris and you really think that there is a correlation between the randomness of a bot and it's originality... well, you're pretty much completely wrong. The reason why we value the concept of originality here is because it's innately difficult. Truly effective original designs require infinitely more conceptual and perceptual problem solving skills and creativity than do simple efficient clones of other people's building. When we fawn over Clickbeetle, it's not because we think that he randomly mashed his keyboard until something cool came out, we admire the thought process and problem solving that he must have gone through to arrive at an original bot. If there was no more to building than the infinite monkey theorem, then yes, your "truly original random bot" argument would make sense. But we know that this simply isn't true. Originality requires the imagination to conceptualize, the cognitive skills to perceptualize and the building skills to construct(ualize?). It's a showcase guys, not a courtroom. People can post what they want.
This. Although I disagree with the "why continue to give them advice" bit. We give advice in order to give those willing to learn the tools and abilities to become a more effective builder, not to shape them in our own molds of what we deem to be acceptable. We all have to walk before we can run though, so we have generally encouraged new members to clone. This isn't because we all hate creativity and we're some oppressive communist police state (although sometimes I wonder...), but because cloning designs is an effective way to master techniques like eFFe glitching, stacking, and axle loading. Before Unreal ragequit - and let's be honest, you really have to be able to take some criticism here - I liked what I saw. But there is a better way to give advice than "a) is horrible, b) is horrible, c) is horrible... what else... ah yes! d) is also horrible!" Because that isn't being helpful. That's being arrogant.

TU ruined reach
This. Also why I usually only play Invasion now (some BTB too). Although I tend to run into teams of 6 inheritors and all that other BS.

Mastodon - Octopus Has No Friends
Funny how you're favourite Mastodon song is my least favourite.
I actually quite liked the Hunter due the greater melodic elements; granted, it was simpler, but it has a good flow to it and less of the typical prog elements you can find on other Mastodon records; my favorites Mastodon records are still Remission and Leviathan because they hadn't gone THAT far into prog territory; Blood Mountain I can tolerate but Crack In The Skye I find to be really quite bad and extremely dull.
*Had a long post here detailing our differing opinions of Mastodon, but Chrome crashed and killed it* Genesis of what I said: - Leviathan = Mastodon's best album, easily. - Remission I did not like, except for Mother Puncher- Crack the Skye was excellent, IMO - Don't understand your idea that The Hunter (the album I assume) had a "good flow" to it. I found it very disjointed and straight up cacophonic in some places ( Octopus and Bedazzled Fingernails specifically) Anyways, I see our respective musical tastes differing, yet overlapping like some kind of Venn diagram. You like the faster, harder, punch-your-teeth-in-er stuff, while I like the more proggy/laid back/slower stuff. By the way, did you give High on Fire's Fertile Green a listen yet? You may like that one.
